Brief Answer:
Give colourful fruits and vegetables. Give steam inhalation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Some children suffer from frequent infections. If the child is otherwise active, chances are that the infection is viral. The child usually becomes lethargic or sick in case of a bacterial infection. Most cases of cough and cold are due to viral infections. There are a large number of viruses that cause cough and cold and you need not worry if the child is otherwise active and playful. You need to give steam inhalation. You also need to ensure that the child eats colourful fruits and vegetables on a daily basis. That will ensure good immunity and your child would gradually get cough and cold less frequently.
